Mitloehner’s promotion of fecal waste as renewable energy helped get tax incentives for factory dairies in Biden’s IRA climate bill. Many may soon profit more off shit than milk.
Anaerobic digesters turn cow manure into biogas. Like natural gas, biogas is mostly methane, so it can substitute for natural gas in electricity generation and powering vehicles. Last week, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) released new data on the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) program showing a big jump in the use of biogas from dairy farms to power vehicles.
